Then it immediately jumps to the cancelled parliamentary hearing with the TAP CEO about bonuses management recieved that was cancelled because the CEO had "an urgent meeting with Airbus", thus creating a sense of some imminent danger.
They then say that "a passenger saw a pilot landing in an oxygen mask" (how did the passenger see it through the closed cockpit door?) and that "a source" says TAP union reported 14 cases". They didn't clarify whether it was on the same flight or on several.
According to Wikipedia (admittedly, itself not a very reliable source) Sol was created to compete with another newspaper. This article is just a circulation booster.
